Patent Images
1. A location information management system (LIMS), comprising:
- a controller computer;
a historical database operatively coupled to the controller computer and configured to store network event historical data; and
a metadata database operatively coupled to the controller computer and configured to store metadata;
wherein the LIMS is configured to utilize past and current real time data from multiple sources, including a wireless network, a wireless location network, and off-line sources including network information, geographic information, manually entered information and geo-spatial data, to optimize utilization of wireless location resources across multiple users and entities to produce location-aware intelligence.
